Software Engineer, Cloud Engineering

New York Times • New York, NY • 17h ago

The mission (https://www.nytco.com/company/mission-and-values/) of The New York Times is to seek the truth and help people understand the world. That means independent journalism is at the heart of all we do as a company. It's why we have a world-renowned newsroom that sends journalists to report on the ground from nearly 160 countries. It's why we focus deeply on how our readers will experience our journalism, from print to audio to a world-class digital and app destination. And it's why our business strategy centers on making journalism so good that it's worth paying for.

About the Role

You will report to the Senior Manager of the Cloud Engineering Team. Your team will focus on creating tools and services that abstract underlying cloud infrastructure in AWS to make it easier for product engineering teams to develop and run their code.

We are looking for candidates who are passionate technologists and collaborative partners. This role is open to NYC based employees, and is hybrid (2 days a week in office).

Responsibilities:

Contribute to the technical vision for the team

Develop, operate, and collaborate on the evolution of a centralized, scalable container runtime environment built on Kubernetes

Surface technical risks and partner with stakeholders to assess technical complexity and sustainability needs

Work within the overlap of several areas of focus: observability, security, deployment pipelines, cloud infrastructure and containerization

Promote the use of modern automation around access management and Infrastructure-as-code

Work with product engineering teams, helping them optimize applications for cloud infrastructure

Document best practices, prescribed solutions, and production support playbooks

Participate in on-call rotations for the tools we build, and provide expertise to users of our solutions

Demonstrate support and understanding of our value of journalistic independence (https://www.nytco.com/company/mission-and-values/) and a strong commitment to our mission to seek the truth and help people understand the world.

This role reports to Evan Cowden

Basic Qualifications:

3+ years of building and operating distributed systems

Experience collaborating on large projects with significant impact

1+ years of Experience with AWS cloud tooling

A high degree of interest in Linux containers and managed clustering solutions like AWS EKS/ECS/Fargate, and GKE

Experience with Infrastructure-as-code concepts

Preferred Qualifications:

A passion for automating things

An understanding of distributed systems architecture and experience with networking, load balancing, monitoring, and troubleshooting in a cloud environment

A high degree of empathy for existing solutions and issues. The New York Times is modern in many ways but is also prone to having issues that a 165-year-old organization may have - including legacy systems. There are many things to improve

A commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion

This role may require limited on-call hours. An on-call schedule will be determined when you join, taking into account team size and other variables.
